Lock in a great price for Villino di Porporano – rated 9.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

There was EVERYTHING to like about Elena and her delightful and elegant B&B in Poporano! During this trip to Italy, my husband and I stayed at six different B&B's. Villino takes the prize for spacious, elegant, and well-appointed bedrooms and common rooms, to the gourmet breakfast with eggs cooked to order. All the food was of the highest quality. Elena and her family take pride in this little business and there are no short-cuts. And there is a large, private pool in immaculate condition (as is the whole property.) This is a 4-5 star accommodation for very reasonable cost. IF we ever return to the Parma area we will not hesitate to repeat this glorious stay. And less than ten minutes to Parma Center!

What Travelers Love About This Location

“Breakfast was delicious, with homemade baked goods, fresh fruit, delicious caffe. Proprietress was friendly, helpful, and kind. The gardens were lovely.”

Barbara

United States of America

“I almost did not write this review because I would like to keep this beautiful, elegant boutique hotel from getting too popular and become unavailable. That said, the hotel is spectacular, a short distance from downtown Parma, and extremely close to producers of the finest cheese and prosciutto makers in the area. Elena, the owner and her husband could not be more hospitable, and my wife had a phenomenal cooking class with Elena during our stay. A perfect stay in a perfect setting.”

Anthony

United States of America

“Wonderful welcome by Elena and very beautifully appointed rooms. The garden is enchanting with apricot trees and a nice swimming pool. The breakfast was very nice. Location is ideal to visit castles (Torrechiara) and producers south of Parma.”

“Would absolutely recommend this B&B. We hope to come back again in the future!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Deluxe King Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Loved everything. The only hiccup we had was trouble acquiring an iron when Elena was not available. I asked the helper on site but I couldn't tell if she just didn't want to go get it for us ("It is upstairs," she said but didn't seem inclined to go get it) or if it was being used by someone else. It's a small but pretty basic thing, but was a bit frustrating since we were going to a nice dinner and didn't want to be wrinkled. In the grand scheme of things, this was absolutely not a big deal and doesn't change how much we loved our stay.
눇Location was very convenient, if you are have a car. Quick and easy drive into the city center (less than 10 minutes). Secure and safe parking near the city center and at the B&B was never a problem. Elena was an excellent host and had the best restaurant recommendations. She was also very responsive to communication and so accommodating of any requests or questions. She made restaurant reservations for us. She gave great directions for parking and driving around town. She also stored some parma cheese for us during our stay, since our room did not have a refrigerator. The breakfast (included in the rate we paid) was excellent! Every single day there were fresh breads (the croissants were heavenly), pie, fruit, the works. It was a banquet and we loved it. Our room was perfect for us (We stayed in the Deluxe King room. I think they referred to it as Il Giardino. It overlooked the back patio and was quiet and spacious. The bed was comfortable and I love the linen sheets. The bathroom was also quite large and so clean. Everything was beautifully decorated and well done. Homey and yet great functionality. The grounds were gorgeous. So green and lush. We enjoyed relaxing by the pool and taking a quick cool dip at the end of the day. Bonus: They have the cutest dogs on the property.
